  1. Great! When I started my daughters hunting the oldest couldn't pull the trigger on an elk, big brown eye was looking at her in the scope, I said fine, you don't have to kill anything, no problem when she decided to stay home for the deer hunt. Then came Javelina season and she said she wanted to try again, javelina are smelly ugly little things and I think I can shoot them, she tagged out and has been hunting ever since.

    Size of pig herds in Unit 18B?

    I'm inclined to think predators Don, was East of you after Elk in Dec and saw a bunch of coyotes and heard many more. Picked up lion sign in a couple spots too.

    VORTEX DOUBLER??

    have no experience with doublers, all I can say is I see a bunch of them for sale
  5. online=2.5 times the number of PROCRASTINATORS that put it off until the last minute, of course G&F is going to extend the deadline, more money for them

    Trouble spotting javelina herds

    think small, look for a single animal versus a herd, watch for horizontal lines (their back), if you think you see something but aren't sure mark it and look elsewhere, then go back and see if it has moved. You may glass the same terrain for hours, then all of a sudden there they are. Check for them coming out of the bottoms of the draws in the mornings and following the sun lines up the hills. Glassing is a skill that gets better with time, like any skill.

    good gene's in that small buck is my guess didn't know you couldn't bring sheds back from Mexico, knew you couldn't on the Rez.

    elk herd with hoof rot

    they need to put out salt blocks with iodine, that is how ranchers handle foot rot in their cattle

    Vortex Viper 15x50mm (Non-HD)

    may hang on to them, I use mine as backups and loaners when I take people out that don't have glass.
  12. I have a very simple solution - if it is legal for a LEO to carry it should be legal for the average citizen, my life is just as important as theirs. The exception is full auto firearms.

    Homesick Snowbird?

    I was in Mesa the other day and I saw a bumper sticker on a parked car that read, "I miss Chicago ." So, I broke the window, stole the radio, shot out two of the tires and left a note that read, "I hope this helps!"

    Southern Arizona water hole

    if you want to hunt an area spend some time on foot, there are usually hidden tanks away from roads that don't get hit. These are going to be in draws so use that to guide your wanders. Now there is Google Earth, before it I would buy a couple 7.5 minute maps, sit and study them in my living room, then go walk the country. You'll be surprised what a little boot leather will buy you.

    Travel Mgmt zealots

    You would be surprised and the number of anti-hunters in positions of authority in the FS now. They don't want hunters, cattle, logging or people in "their" forests, despite the fact that these are the groups that have been stewards of the land for generations.

    Blonde Javelina

    I killed one in 33 4 or 5 years ago, skinned her out to get it tanned but changed my mind. Now I wish I had tanned it, she was pretty.

    Pistol Grip Heads

    I have both the Bogen and the Outdoorsman grips, I really like them over the standard panning. Plus you can get a little more height on your set up so you can stand up and glass.

    bad timing, a pair with tripod & panning attachment went for $850 yesterday
